The Bloomstack Life
I’ve made no secret of my fascination with the Bloomsbury Group. In September 2022 I even made a pilgrimage to the twinned country homes of sisters Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell—Monk’s House and Charleston Farmhouse respectively—perched near each other by the South Downs of East Sussex, England.
The Downs are beautiful and rolling and sparsely peopled (i.e., heaven)—I confess the word “SHIRE!” w

"A free ARC of this book was made available to me through NetGalley. My review was optional and contains only my honest opinions.
I did not always find Lamb to be a pleasant read, but I consider it a valuable and engaging one. The story is one of painf" Read more of this review » |

I wrote a novel about the years I spent with a person who had MPD I think its called something different now. But 2 people living with actually 10 personalities- Yeah, that was an adventure.

Diana Day-Admire:
When I first started writing as a child I never dreamed about being published, it was for church, school and family. I looked for books at the stores that had prompts and was disappointed. So I formatted my book so others had places to make it there
See Diana’s answer.

“They were about the same age, but thirty-five years might have been forty-five if Mamma’s face had been a place for measuring time, while Coletta’s might have been twenty-five. You saw four children in Mamma’s face, you even saw Hugo there; you saw centuries of worry, ages of toil, aeons of work and distress. There was no record of children upon the face of Coletta Drigo, nor of worry, nor of distress; instead you saw a rare nuance of youth to maturity; you saw excitement; you saw great cities, happy times, the whole wonderful world; and, above all, her beauty, black hair, black eyes, the dark whitish skin. You were sure that if she had a pet it wasn’t a dog but a cat, a Siamese cat.”

“If we eliminate the pressure to pass, what delicious and devastating opportunities for transformation might we create?”

“A lot of fans are basically fans of fandom itself. It's all about them. They have mastered the Star Wars or Star Trek universes or whatever, but their objects of veneration are useful mainly as a backdrop to their own devotion. Anyone who would camp out in a tent on the sidewalk for weeks in order to be first in line for a movie is more into camping on the sidewalk than movies. Extreme fandom may serve as a security blanket for the socially inept, who use its extreme structure as a substitute for social skills. If you are Luke Skywalker and she is Princess Leia, you already know what to say to each other, which is so much safer than having to ad lib it. Your fannish obsession is your beard. If you know absolutely all the trivia about your cubbyhole of pop culture, it saves you from having to know anything about anything else. That's why it's excruciatingly boring to talk to such people: They're always asking you questions they know the answer to.”
